What stewardship challenges or questions are you facing in your ministry context? New Ministry Development and Evangelism leaders are invited to join these monthly webinars for stewardship conversations, support and mentoring offered by the ELCA Christian Community and Leadership Team. Content will address financial best practices and the questions and needs of participants.
The Greater Milwaukee Synod has already paid the “synod fee” for participation in these sessions, so all congregations in our synod have access to this resource free of charge! Contact Pr. Matthew Short at matt@milwaukeesynod.org if you intend to attend the first session. You can then discern if this resource will be helpful to your leaders.
Join peers in interactive sessions to develop your skills and confidence in asking donors for financial support. Through the five online sessions, you will learn techniques to help you deepen donor relationships to connect vision to mission while actively making progress on your own ministry goals – from a capital campaign to funding mission work.

The ELCA Christian Community and Leadership Team invites Mission Developers and New Ministries leaders of African heritage to a listening session to build and expand resources for your important ministries. Your input will contribute to the creation of a Financial Empowerment opportunity for leaders and ministries that is contextualized to meet your setting. In addition to exploring your financial goals, you will learn about available resources and opportunities to raise funds and increase your leadership confidence.
